Zetor tractors

boycat · Feb 9, 2006

have always liked Zetors, I know they are just trying to look more modern with the body style, but I cant bring myself to buy a tractor that looks like a weird animal. Boy! this is one ugly tractor, anteater bodystyle, ugly, ugly, wont buy one no matter how good it runs!!!

Hello boycat
What model are you looking at? Maybe you could fill out your profile so we know little more about you. It is interesting to here hear that someone named "boycat" does not like weird animals. What does a boycat look like? (Just kidding so don't get upset) If you are anywhere near Louisville, KY come visit us at the Farm Machinery Show new week.
Happy Tractoring

Personally, I could care less how a tractor looks as long as it does what I want it to do.

Sorry chipperman, I guess I offended you for calling a ZETOR an anteater looking tractor and a boycat is the opposite of a girlcat, cats are weird animals but so are chipmonks and I like them both !!

No offence taken. I just thought your post deserved a response. Good luck with what ever tractor you buy.

I agree with some others, the looks isn't as important as performance.I bought a new 5245 several years ago and had less than 300 hrs on it when I started to have small problems,brakes and power steering fluid leaked,clutch hyd. cylinder went bad ,brakes would freeze up ,my dealer went under which is not the fault of the tractor for sure.The good points which were many was fuel economy was great for such a heavy tractor and it had a great engine,the tractor was very heavy duty for sure.If you don't mind doing some wrench work once in awhile they are a nice tractor,I now have a different brand tractor as there is no zetor dealer in my area for service work.

hec how ofthen did you have to turn a wrench. i have a massey and dont turn one ofthen but when i do i have to take the dang thing half apart. i want a kubota but i see people saying there to light i want a heavy machine but dont want to work on it all the time. beside the last time i looked at a zetor the price was nice too.

to get what i want from kubota i have to get in the m series price
